Liwa Zainebiyoun

Liwa Zainebiyoun is a pro-Syrian government brigade of Shia Pakistanis that was formed in late 2014 to take part in the fight against the Syrian Opposition during the Syrian Civil War. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps trained and led Liwa Zainebiyoun, which had a strength of up to 1,000 people by 2016. The brigade played a major role in the Battle of Aleppo as a part of the pro-government forces, fighting against the rebels.
